Asian Football Players

This is such a poorly put together list. What gives you the right to claim who’s Asian and only “partially” Asian?

Gabe Liu Tulane 2023, He got an interception against Nicholls State

Taison Phommachanh (Laotian/black.)
2019-2022 Clemson QB
2023 Georgia Tech QB.

Kyler Murray – 1/4 Korean

Hi, just want to help update. Marshawn Lynch is 1/4 Filipino and Josh Jacobs is also part Filipino. Salamaht.

Hi I noticed a couple D3 players on here, I played D3 at buffalo state college, got first team all conference, ECAC first team all star/all east coast team in 2007, played 2004-2007. Third in country in interceptions and first in TFL for DB’s, top 10 in country in forced fumbles. Broke school records for blocked kicked, including 3 blocked punts in a game

Brad Aoki at USC is half Chinese and Half Japanese. I know for sure because I am his proud grandfather. Please post his picture with Chinese players also. Mahalo and Aloha.

I noticed a lot of Lao/Laotian American players are missing from the list. We have documented 16 players from the Lao community thus far as shown on our website. I do see a few that overlap our list. A couple of notable ones to add are the other Phommachan brothers (Jordan and Tyler), AJ Vongphachanh (Utah State) and Malachi Moore (Alabama) Again, several others are on our website.

Jonathan Kim. Kicker. North Carolina. 2019 to present

Hello and thank you for this list. Why are many of these players grayed out? I’d like to print this for my 87 year old father but the gray rows make it difficult to read. Is there any way to get rid of the gray?

Hey,

You guys are forgetting about my little cousin Noah Kim half Korean/white at Michigan State. Y’all need to add him to the list here. Check out his IG @_NoahKim_

Ricky Logo (Samoan) played DT at NC State University 1989 thru 1992. In 1992 he was All-ACC and 3rd-team All-American, and played one season (career-ending injury) for the Detroit Lions. Currently an assistant coach at Washington State.

Jackson He just scored a touchdown for Arizona State University against State rivals University of Arizona. He Rushed it in as a running back…. celebration was wild. He is a walk on from China…. Good job young man!

Why does Zach Tuiasosopo have a higher ranking than Marques? Do you know how I know that’s incorrect? Zach doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page. Even their other brother, Matt, has a Wikipedia page. Please fix this immediately before your credibility is damaged beyond repair.

The son of Korean immigrants, the offensive lineman became the first player of Korean descent to play in the NFL.

I agree with you. Black Asians are placed in a subcategory. The first person that they should have listed with a picture is Hines Ward! . I guess that black blood makes them lesser Asians than white blood. . What a piece of crap.

Is there a listing of Asian-American baseball players?

I think you need to add on Seung Hoon Choi who played at Huskers Football (2008-12)

Position: Offensive Lineman (Left Guard)
Height: 6’2”, Weight: 295lb

Seung Hoon Choi was one of two senior offensive linemen who played a key role for the Huskers during the 2012 season, helping Nebraska field one of the top offenses in the nation. The 6-2, 295-pound Choi started all 14 games at left guard and the continuity of the offensive line played a key role in the success of the offense.

A native of South Korea, Choi came to Lincoln in the eighth grade and first played football as a sophomore in high school. A former walk-on to the Husker program, Choi was one of five players to be awarded a scholarship prior to the start of the 2012 season.

2012 (Senior)
Choi started every game for the Huskers, helping Nebraska lead the Big Ten in both rushing offense and total offense. The offensive line paved the way for a rushing attack that saw sophomore I-back Ameer Abdullah rack up 1,137 rushing yards, while quarterback Taylor Martinez added 1,019 yards and 10 rushing touchdowns. Nebraska gained better than 430 yards in 12 of 14 games and rushed for at least 250 yards eight times in 2012.

2011 (Junior)
Choi and sophomore Andrew Rodriguez split the starting role at left guard, with Choi taking over full-time when Rodriguez missed the final four games with a foot injury. Choi’s play helped Nebraska average 217.2 rushing yards per game, while rushing for more than 200 yards seven times. The Huskers rushed for more than 300 yards against Washington, Wyoming and Minnesota.

Choi made his starts against Washington, Wyoming, Penn State, Michigan, Iowa and South Carolina, joining Spencer Long and Mike Caputo as walk-ons on the starting line. The play of the line paved the way for I-back Rex Burkhead to rush for 1,357 yards, the most by an NU I-back since 1997.

2010 (Sophomore)
Choi added depth at offensive guard and played in the opener against Western Kentucky.

2009 (Redshirt Freshman)
Choi provided depth at guard, but did not see game action.

2008 (Redshirt)
Choi walked on and sat out his first season as a redshirt.

Before Nebraska (Lincoln Christian HS)
Seung was born on Nov. 24, 1989, in Seoul, South Korea. He is the son of Sang Ho Choi and Yu Mi Chu, who still reside in South Korea. Choi came to the United States to live with an uncle who worked at UNL as a researcher. Choi is majoring in sociology/business administration.

Personal
